Step:
1. Draw lines parallel to the adjacent side
of the triangle from each ends of tie
line (DH-EH, AJ-BJ, and so on)
2. Connect the dots where the lines
intersect to make a conjugate line.
3. Interpolate new tie lines using
conjugate line.
Step:
1. Draw equilibrium data in ternary diagram
2. Draw the known feed, solvent, & raffinate/extract points in
the ternary diagram
LLE WITH TERNARY Mixing Point represent the combined composition of feed F and solvent S
SYSTEM Method 1: material balance
Total Balance: 𝐹 + 𝑆 = 𝑀 = 𝐸1 + 𝑅𝑁
Number of
Equilibrium Stages: 𝑀 = 250 + 100 = 350𝑘𝑔
Step:
3. Determine Mixing Point (M) composition by
material balance or Inverse Lever Rule
Feed Solvent Mixing

Flow 250 100 350 Now we can draw point M on the ternary diagram
rate
LLE WITH TERNARY Mixing Point is always located on the straight line connecting F and S!

SYSTEM Since Mixing Point is always located on the straight line connecting F and S,
we can determine length ratio of S-F and S-M lines:

DILUTE LLE When the concentration of solute in the feed is relatively low, Kremser
equation can be used to calculate N and product composition.
Kremser Equation With several assumptions:
• Operation is isothermal and isobaric
• R=F=constant and E=S=constant
• Equilibrium line is linear
